Round the corner

..round the corner there may wait, 

a new road or a secret gate.

 Can you guess which famous author  wrote these words?

no peeking!

You can find Round the Corner in my Etsy shop.

Flying Heart

 Lordy...my last jewelry posts have all been bracelets, I think I am in need of an intervention! 

Here is an etched cuff style bracelet that I thought would be perfect for this time of year. 

Flying Heart 

Miss Ficklemedia's russet patina gave depth to this brass focal. I gently buffed the heart to bring back the shine before applying the sealers. Red creek jasper and a handmade pottery bead adds more color and texture.

 Don't you just love that jasper??

You can find this piece is my Etsy shop. 

It's a Hoot

Here is an etched owl pendant I made a while ago and today it found its home in this necklace called "Hoot". For some reason I really wanted something earthy paired with the etched piece, a combination of jasper, tiger eye, wood and African opal did the trick. Hope you like it! You can find "Hoot" in my Etsy shop.

Sedona

This piece originally started out as a bracelet, instead a very earthy pendant was formed. I have been trying to create with other colors...that are not blues and turquoises. I always seem to gravitate towards those colors, but when you scroll down you will see I was not too successful. 

 Gorgeous fire agate, red river jasper, copper and some brass, originally I thought a copper ball chain would work well, but I felt it had to much copper going on, so I substituted a mellow antique brass chain. I am calling this piece Sedona. You can find this later today in my Etsy shop.

Sedona is on my bucket list of places I would like to visit...someday. 

The lovely LeAnn of Summers Studio  created this great porcelain pendant that I used as a toggle for the focal for this bracelet. I paired it with sterling, smoky quartz and fancy jasper. The glaze on this toggle is wonderful, blues and greens, my favorite combination.
